Last time I replaced a 12 volt battery on my Subaru, lost several settings, and it was a PITA. Various online sources tout memory savers, while other tout jumper cables. Looks like apples/oranges to me, but I already have jumpers... Suggestions?
If we're talking about the Prius; use another car and the jump point under the hood - unless you have another good freestanding battery to hook up to while messing round in the trunk.
